day 10 after Frozen Embryo Transfer

Posted by TRY (384 days ago)

Anyone encountering the same? I'm on day 10 after embryo transfer and I think I've been quite stressed over this IVF. I'm feeling a minor cramping at times and have minor transparent discharge (like egg white - no odour). Just so afraid that I will be getting my period!!! Anybody had similar situation but pregnant? I'm so worried!

I haven't had IVF but I do remember the waiting game until period is due. When I eventually got pregnant after a round of hormone injections I was convinced I wasn't pregnant- I had the same as you, whitish discharge, cramps and even a period! I can only advise you to try and take your mind off it and keep yourself busy over the next few days - days out, movies, go round to friends for decaf lattes etc. Even if you get your period pls still test as I had my period and it turned out to be low progesterone and I had to have supplements or I would have lost my baby.

TRY, best of luck. I am rooting for you. It took me 3 years to concieve and my beautiful boy is now nearly 2 years old. Sometimes just when you think there's no hope, the sun comes out and shines down on you very brightly.

hi TRY ~ these last few days before the beta are awful, you are stellar for not poas'ing.

the feelings of implantation are very similar to pmsing and it is human nature to analyse every twinge and secretion...

mrs miggins gave some great distraction type advice, and i would follow it - as much mindless stuff as possible. when is your beta???

all best

Hi Mrs. Miggins and abitnaive

many thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately I am having my period as of today - I had major cramps while I was at work today and had noticed brownish discharge (the ones you get when you're about to get your period). I am really disappointed but none the less, it's the 1st IVF cycle and I did prepare myself for the worst. My husband was very supportive and said we can always try next time..........

Mrs. Miggins - I'm still gonna try for a hpt just to make sure...........

Ok. Not sure if this will help but here it goes. My wife had 7 miscarriages. Not 1 doctor could say why in HK. We were going to go to new York for a diffrent opinion and I saw on Asia Expat a fertility doctor that was the best bet. We went to him and he said we should try IVF. We did and now have a 2 year old daughter!!! We then tried again with frozen eggs about a year later and it didn't work. We were told later that there is only a 20% chance of it working with frozen eggs. We were told this a year later!!! We are now trying IVF again and my wife has just had her egg retreival and we are waiting to see how many are fertilized. The thing I am trying to say is keep tring and hopefully it will end up working out. Good luck...
